Thank you and Good-bye

[Shin]

It's been 1 year and 8 months since I joined GBLI and I am about to leaving US this morning. GBLI is the best jiu-jitsu gym I've ever seen. It is my honor to have been able to be a part of your team. I had an excellent time training with you. And receiving a brown belt from the great professor Joe and Tom became the highlight of my US stay. I'll return to Japan having a big pride in my belt.
Thank you for the wonderful time both on and off the mat. I hope I will be able to back to NY soon, so stay in touch. My private email address is fukusiki59@mac.com.
My best wishes for you and your family's happiness and healthiness.
Shin

that goes both ways, it has been great training with you shin and It wont be long till you receive that black belt, I hope you find an academy in japan that you can bring as much good times on the mat as you brought to GBLI...

Shin - you will be missed! It has been an honor and a pleasure training with you. Keep in touch.

It was great training with you Shin. I learned a lot from you the few times we've trained. Good luck in Japan and I hope we can train together again one day!

Shin I havnet been on this forum in a while so I just read your post...

You will certainly be missed! You are an incredibly tough competitor and training with you has helped my game a lot. You are also a great person and pleasure to be around!

I hope your training in Japan goes as well as it did here. Represent GBLI! =)

I hope to see you again soon! Best wishes!
